Crisp Mane, whose late surge last week fell a neck short, rallied in the final stages of the feature $11,000 event for mares on Tuesday (Feb. 2) at Pompano Park and took top honours, ironically, by a neck, for David Miller in 1:52.3.
The talented five-year-old daughter of Sportswriter turned the tables on Tempus Seelster (Joe Chindano Jr.) this time around with Roll With Angel (Ken Holliday) third, 3-1/4 lengths away.
As the outset, Prairie Westerngal (Wally Hennessey) zipped off the wings from post six into an open lead early as Tempus Seelster also left with alacrity and forged her way to the front at the hot opener of :26.3. Crisp Mane, who was third through a half in a rated :56.3, went first-up on the backside to engage during a :27.2 third panel, reaching the saddle pad of the leader past the third station in 1:24.
